Exercise 9

I find Facebook the handiest ands easiest to access and the most comprehensive.

All companies have to be social media savvy in order to keep up with their customers. It also saves them time by communicating on Facebook about all their new products and promotions and sales.

Customers can post opinions and various issues they have. Libraries , being the community hubs they now are , need to be on social media to attract new readers and inform old ones. Library customers can offer suggestions and access information about events and happenings at the library.

I believe Facebook continuously update their accessibility and security and privacy policies.
